Grow and Development
The gestasion period of a binturong is about 91 days. Binturong young stay with their mother for about 1 year and there are usally 2 babies although there can be as many as 6 or as little as 1. They are mainly solitary mammals although sometimes stay in packs of females or imature females. http://a-z-animals.com/animals/binturong/
Reproduce
Bingturongs babies are born alive and binturongs reproduce mainly 2 times a year, they mate all year round but there are more births in the months of January to March.Bingturong males and females are territorial so they scent mark their territory (Urinating the area where their territory is.)Fun Fact: Strangely bingturong scent smells like popcorn,so would different binturongs smell like extra buttery popcorn? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binturong
Life Cycle
Bingturongs live for about 10 to 15 years, although some live to 25 years old.Bingturong babies are born blind ond rely on their mother to survive until they gain their eyesight which they get a few weeks after they're born.As bingturong mature they grow larger and after 1 year they no longer require their mother to survive. http://a-z-animals.com/animals/binturong/
Respond to Enviorment
Binturongs have sharp curved claws that help them grip the branches of trees, a tail that helps them balance and short legs that help them stay close to the branches of trees. This makes them slow on the forest floor but makes them suprisingly agile in trees. http://www.theanimalspot.com/binturong.htm
The binturong meets its needs by:
Habitat
Bingturongs used to be native to China, India, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines and the island of Borneo, but now they are rarely found and very hard to spot due to habitat loss, poaching, and expanding human population.They live in dense jungle near slow moving rivers, although those are hard to find now. http://a-z-animals.com/animals/binturong/
Diet
Binturongs are classified as carnivoires although they also eat roots and fruit, they are very skillful hunters and prey on birds, fish, and other small mammals and small reptiles. Of all the fruits they eat they especially like eating figs from the strangler fig tree. They will also eat carrion, insects, leaves and tree shoots. http://www.theanimalspot.com/binturong.htm
Water
Binturongs meet their need for water by drinking water from streams, rivers, lakes, and puddles.
Air
Bintutrongs meet their need for air by breathing.
